Ok so I have a few questions. Let's start with

1) ok so I have been struggling with identifying the Gender of one of my chickens. They are 11 weeks old now. I definitely have one rooster because he has started crowing. He is significantly larger, has a brighter/bigger comb, and is crowing. The first born Lennie is smaller than him and has not started crowing and her comb is more pink than red. I really have no clue. I'm hoping Lennie is a hen because There is no way I can find a home for two roosters. By the way they are Plymouth barred rock chickens if that helps. Well if anyone has any ideas please let me know!!!!!

2) they also spar pretty often. Is that a sign of two roosters?!? But they get along so well and love each other. They snuggle in their pen area and will lay on each other and play!
 
Welcome to BYC!

I would guess you have a roo and a hen. Could you post a picture? Roosters spar more then hens, but hens still spar too.
 
Welcome to BYC. The best way to get help sexing/identifying a bird is to provide a good picture. Full side view is best, we are looking at comb, tail, saddle, legs and stance.
 
Hey everyone thanks for the comments I'll show you them but I have figured it out. I have 2 roosters. He started crowing the other day!
 
So this was my for sure rooster
